It's lunch hour at Crossroads. Lita is sitting down for lunch on the grass. Amy and Serena approach her.
Serena: What ya doing Lita?
Lita: Hi Serena. I was just watching the boys play Soccer.
Serena: Your suppose to S M I L E when you watch them. Instead, you're frowning. Why?
Lita: Check out the goaltender. See how poorly he is playing.
Serena looked up and saw 5 guys cheering, 4 guys with hanging heads, and one guy down on his knees, obviously angry with himself.
Serena: Chris playing soccer poorly? He keeps bragging about his low goals against average.
Lita: And until a few days ago, he backed that up quite well. It's as if he has something on his mind and he can't focus. I'm kind of concerned about it actually.
Amy: Don't worry about it, he'll be fine. Besides, there are more important things to worry about right now.
Lita: I know. It's just that I have this strange feeling...
Serena: Is it by any chance L-OOOVE? (Giggles)
Amy: Serena!
Lita: It's not that. At least, I don't think it is.
Amy: Well, I am sure that this funk Chris is going through will end soon. However, maybe you should take a couple of minutes to talk with him. Maybe then you can help.
Lita: That sounds like a great idea. Just don't blame me for being late to the meeting today. We never blame Serena for it so...Brother Unknown: Sade, Raivian, I believe that you two are the ones known as the Gemini Siblings among your collages?
Sade: Yes we are. My brother and I were conceived on the same day.
Brother Unknown: 2 surviving twins, in identical at that. The gods blessed your parents with a rare and wonderful gift. Which of you were born first?
Raivian: My sister preceded me by a mere 2 minutes. We have never been apart since.
Brother Unknown: Unlike Zoë when she was on her previous mission.
Sade: Has she been punished for her sin?
Brother Unknown: I can say that she is indeed punished for her ignorant actions; how I will not disclose. If you want to find out what her punishment is, all you have to do is commit the same crime that she has. Then whichever of you comes back will experience the same thing she is going through.
Raivian: We have always been inseparable. I guarantee that this will never change.
Brother Unknown: That is good to hear. Now, just before the book Zoë brought in vanished, I was able to learn the identity of the ring holder. His is a picture of this individual. I want him here, and I want him alive if possible. I am sure you understand that.
Sade: Believe us when we say that we won't fail.
Raivian: Emerald Night will have no chance.Lita: CHRIS, WAIT UP!!! Chris stopped walking to let Lita catch up.
Lita: Hi Chris. What's up?
Chris: Nothing actually. Now if you'll excuse me. Last thing I want to do is lash out at you, and I am mad enough at myself as it is.
Chris turned away, but Lita would have none of it.
Lita: Why not tell me about it?
Chris: (turned his head and glared at Lita) BECAUSE I CAN'T, THAT'S WHY! (Shook his head for a second) Sorry about that. I mean...
Lita: Hay, I understand that you have a lot on your mind, maybe it would help if you told someone about..
Chris: Am I to assume that a mere bit of talking will help me? It appears as though you don't understand what I am going through.
Lita: Then help me understand.
Chris: NO! (Shook his head again) Well, maybe. I'm feeling pretty bad about myself lately. I'll try to explain this anger to you, but not here, not now.
Lita: Maybe we can talk at my place over some cakes?
Chris: Ya know, just the mention of your cakes made me feel better. Let's go!Sade: There he is. Should we attack?
Raivian: No. We should wait until there are fewer people. That way, it would take longer for the scouts to arrive and ruin everything.
Sade: A wise move my dear brother."Damn, not now!" he thought to himself. His ring was flashing, and an enemy was approaching. If the choice was now or never, he knew that they would never have chosen never.
Lita: Chris, can you HEAR me?
Chris: huh, oh. Man, I hate it when I zone out like that.
Lita: People need to zone out once in a while. Anyway, were here.
Chris: Actually, I just remembered that I have to go, ugh, somewhere. I forgot where exactly, but....
Lita: I am sure that it can wait.
Voice: No it can't!
Chris and Lita looked towards the stranger that said that. His eyes had no whites. He pointed to Chris.
Raivian: You are coming with us.
Chris: That's what you THINK, bud!
Raivian: That is what I KNOW, kid!
Chris: Lita, get out of here, now.
Lita: I can take him. Don't worry. (She looked at Chris, who had his hands in his face) What are you doing? When he removed his hands, she saw that they contained pink contact lenses. Then, he turned his head and stared at her eyes for a second: GET OUT OF HERE NOW!!!
Lita leapt back startled. It wasn't so much the expression on his face, nor the way he yelled at her, but it was his dark green eyes. He turned to face the man. He passed his left hand over his right, and as if out of thin air, the Leto ring appeared. So did a net that fell from above on top of him, pinning him to the ground.
Raivian: Well done sister.
Sade (leaping out from her hiding spot in a nearby tree): Mission accomplished. (She turned to Lita) Didn't he tell you to leave?
Lita: He did, but I am not going anywhere! JUPITER STAR POWER!
Sade and Raivian were stunned by the sudden appearance of Sailor Jupiter. Even Chris was surprised by what he saw in the corner of his eye.
Jupiter: JUPITER THUNDERBOLT CRUSH! Sade and Raivian both ducked, not knowing whom she targeted. After a few seconds, they realized that neither one of them were targeted, but the netting was.
Lita: The others are already on their way. Until then, shall we get them? Chris held his hand with the ring to his face and shut his eyes. A strong flash originated from his ring, and once the flash was gone, so was Chris. In his place was Emerald Night, sword drawn.
Emerald: Lets!
Emerald jumped on Raivian, while Jupiter went after Sade. The ensuing fight was even until Sade blasted Jupiter with a bolt of black magic. Emerald saw it. Emerald: No! With a sudden burst of strength, he grabbed Raivian with one hand, threw him to the ground hard like a rag doll, and charged at Sade. She didn't see him coming as he speared her with a solid tackle. Sade was stunned, but she was aware enough to see Emerald's sword was glowing, and know that it meant trouble.
Emerald: VISION OF FATE
With one backhanded swing of his sword, the green bolt that emerged from it engulfed Sade. When the light disappeared, so did Sade. He turned to tend to Jupiter, but she was no longer lying where he last saw her. Instead, her unconscious body was in the hands of Raivian.
Raivian: That was my sister you MONSTER! You took her life. For that, you know what I'll do, I kill your friend Jupiter here, unless you surrender now of course, face trial for your blatant murder.
Emerald: You attacked US! What am I supposed to do?
Raivian: Surrender!
Voices: NEVER
The other sailor scouts, along with Tuxedo Mask, have arrived.
Sailor Moon: Let her go now, and we will let you leave.
Raivian: I have a better idea, why don't I leave now with your little friend.
Before anybody could answer that, Raivian and Jupiter started to fade.
Emerald: NO!
He charged at the fading figures, to no avail.
Emerald: LITA! (He fell on his knees and started to cry) Lita, no.
The others slowly approached him, all saddened by the loss of their comrade.Brother Unknown: Witch one of you said that you wouldn't fail?
Raivian: It was Sade, but she was killed by Emerald Night right in front of my eyes.
Brother Unknown: It appears that Emerald is more powerful then we believed. We must act quickly. As for you, give me one reason why should live.
Raivian: While I failed to bring back Emerald Night alive, I did bring back one of the Sailor Scouts, the one who calls herself Jupiter. She could be a useful tool in helping us finally retrieving the ring. The guards are holding her right now.
Brother Unknown: Here is what I will do. I will see your prisoner, but I will also confine you to your chambers until I make a final decision.
Raivian: Thank you, brother.
Brother Unknown: Now leave!
Raivian got up and left, as the guards brought in Sailor Jupiter.
Jupiter: Let me go you 2 losers.
Brother Unknown: Guards let her go and return to your posts, she won't be leaving these chambers.
Guards: Yes, Brother.
The guards dropped her on the floor and left the chamber. Jupiter got to her feet and stared at this mysterious cloaked man.
Brother Unknown: You are the one they call Sailor Jupiter, aren't you?
Jupiter: Yeah, and I am also the one that will end your assaults on Earth! JUPITER....
Brother Unknown: Come now, you know as well as I do that you can't survive long in a battle against me. I wonder how Emerald Night will react to news of your demise.
Jupiter: You want me alive, don't you?
Brother Unknown: Actually, I am in a dilemma. For if you were dead, I could take advantage of Emerald's emotional reaction to steal the ring. Raivian tells me that he had a rather allergic reaction to that energy bolt that knocked you senseless. If you were alive, I could use you as bait to trap Emerald, and eliminate him. What do you think I should do?
Jupiter: I think you should eat that robe!
Brother Unknown: You think of yourself as a fearless warrior, now don't you? Well, lets test this.
Brother Unknown slowly approached Jupiter, who held her ground...then started to step back until her back was to the wall. As the distance between her and Brother Unknown closed, she couldn't help but scream.
